ORLANDO, Fla. (January 15, 2014) – Universal Orlando
Resort comes alive this spring with its Mardi Gras 2014 celebration, featuring
20 nights of electrifying concerts from the biggest names in music, coupled
with the essence of the legendary Bayou bash. On select nights Feb. 8
through May 31, guests will experience a “N’awlins”-inspired, family-friendly
version of Mardi Gras at Universal Studios Florida. The celebration combines
unmatched theme park entertainment with delectable Cajun cuisine, authentic New
Orleans bands, an awe-inspiring parade and live concerts by some of today’s

This year’s powerhouse musical lineup features a diverse
array of talent, from R&B superstar Robin Thicke, whose hit single
“Blurred Lines” topped the Billboard chart for a near-record 12 weeks, to UK
pop sensation The Wanted, who has sold nearly 10 million albums
worldwide, to Latin idol Prince Royce, who reached number one on the
U.S. Hot Latin Songs chart with “Corazón Sin Cara.” Also performing is rock
band Daughtry, Grammy award-winning Hip Hop artist Nelly, and the

this year’s parade, which will feature 12 vibrant floats, including three new
additions celebrating Jules Verne’s novel, “Around the World in Eighty Days.”
